I hope no-one minds my posting this here (rather than in "For Sale") but this is of specific interest to Peak District cavers. In 1975 a series of five publications appeared entitled "Caves Of Northern Derbyshire". Written by Dave Elliott they describe most of the caves to the west of the Peak Speedwell system. There are many surveys and the descriptions of the caves (together with many of the associated mines) are detailed and extremely useful, as are the reference lists. These publications are not especially easy to find but a complete set, in good condition, has come my way. The 5 volumes are subtitled:
1. Eldon Hill
2. Giants - Oxlow System
3. Perryfoot / Coalpithole
4. Rushup Edge Swallets
5. Treak Cliff Hill
Apart from being invaluable to any exploring caver these are now becoming a bit of a collector's item. So if someone wants this complete set, in exchange for a reasonable donation to the CDG Ingleton compressor fund, it's yours. (I don't want to split the set.)
